Reference no: EM13317527

A 250 mm- diameter and 16 m-long timber pile is driven into a sandy soil where f= 18 kN/m3 and f' = 34 degree. Estimate the maximum load allowed on the pile with a safety factor of 2.5 . For the problem compare two cases: case 1 where the water table is deep, and case 2 where the water table is a ground level.
